Suspended jail sentence over asbestos exposure

Asbestos News: A Leeds trader has been given a suspended jail sentence (March 2015) after exposing a household and workers to potentially dangerous levels of asbestos fibres at a home in Bramhope.

The trader took on a job to remove asbestos insulating board from the garage of a couple’s home despite the fact that he did not hold the legal licence required to carry out the specialist work.

He hired a couple of workers to help him but totally failed to take any of the vital safety measures needed, or implement the tight controls imposed by law, to protect workers, local people and the environment when working with the material.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) prosecuted him for safety breaches at Leeds Magistrates’ Court (20 March) after investigating the incident.
